The second wave of Social Security payments for April is set to be distributed on Wednesday, April 15. Social Security benefits are typically distributed to recipients who are older or retired, while Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits are for those with limited or no income or resources, those aged 65 or older, and those with a qualifying disability. The SSA's paymentcalendar states that recipients born between the 11th and 20th day of their birth month are typically issued payments on the second Wednesday of the month. For those who received Social Security before May 1997, their payment will be on the third day of the monthly payment.
